BIKES


The aim at BC Bikes is to offer the best range of bicycles available to suit the needs of all our customers. The brands we stock provide bicycles built to the highest standard and offer excellent value for money.

The majority of our range is handpicked from Trek, Genesis and Kona, three great brands we can rely on and trust. We also stock selected models from other companies such as Brompton, who make the best folding bikes, handmade in west London. And Dawes - great value for money, especially on their childrens bikes.

BRANDS WE STOCK

Can't find the model or style you're looking for? We'll order in any bike from the above brands.

Brands:

 

Why Hybrid?

Hybrid cycles combine different features of mountain and road bikes to provide a multipurpose bicycle. Like mountain bikes they have a wide gear ratio and upright straight handlebars.

They also share the narrow tyres, more suitable for riding on the road and often feature large road cycle wheels to make commuting less exhausting.

Brands:
  • Argon18
  • Bianchi
  • Genesis
  • Kinesis
  • Kona
  • Trek
Why Road?

Road bikes offer a great speed advantage over all other bikes. They are designed for smooth flat surfaces and are made for performance before comfort. However, given the advances of materials and geometries, you can enjoy hours in the saddle comfortably.

We have professionally trained bike fitters who are able to make sure you can do the mileage problem free.

If you fancy something different - we can offer a custom build to tailor a bike to suit your needs.

Why Folding?

If part of your journey is on a train then a folding bike is a must! As trains continue to reduce the number of bikes allowed, a folding bicycle navigates around this issue nicely.

The average weight of a folding cycle is being reduced all the time and the folding mechanisms get simpler. They also store neatly under your desk.

Brands:
  • Bianchi
  • Genesis
  • Kona
  • Trek
Why Single Speed?

There is a large range of single speed bikes that, as the name suggests, only have one gear. Unlike full fixed gear bikes they have freewheels, meaning you are able to stop pedaling while the rear wheel still spins. Single speed bikes tend to be very popular with commuters as on the trip to work the last thing that a rider needs is to have the gears go wrong. By only having one gear, the chances of mechanical failure are greatly reduced.

Brands:
Why Mountain?

The sport of mountain biking has grown rapidly in the last 20 years and with it the technology has advanced to cope with the increasing demands placed on bikes.

Frame materials, gears and most importantly the suspension systems that smooth out the bumps are constantly developing year after year.

Brands:
Why Cyclocross?

Cyclocross has been around since the late 70’s when only road bikes were around and before Mountain bikes came onto the scene. Cyclocross bikes give you a wide choice of riding from off road, to road and to commuting, they do it all.

Childrens bikes

We stock every type of bike to guide a child through their cycling development and experience the joy of riding a bike.

Special scooters and learner bikes help to develop a young child’s coordination. When they are ready to start pedalling we offer a full range of stabilised and standard bicycles.
